Alpha News offers two stories about Walz that will not be found elsewhere. The Mayor discusses lack of serious engagement from Vice President Kamala Harris and Governor Tim Walz and how they candidates avoid addressing critical issues, with Walz notably ignoring a question about Israeli hostages found dead in Gaza at the State Fair on Sunday. We learn about Walz's family background, revealing his brother Jeff's misdemeanor theft conviction and look at the broader implication of politicians, including Trump, facing scrutiny of their personal lives, raising questions about why we don't get better candidates. Plus, Harris changes accents as often as she changes her pant suits, world citizens are not dying from extreme heat and Johnny Heidt with guitar news.
